STOVE-PIPE SHELF.

l SnPECIFICAT-@N 'forming part of Letters Patent No. 363,809, dated May 31, 1887.

Application filed November 23, 1886. Serial No. 219,658. (No model.)

To all whom it may concern.`

Be it known that I, ELIJAH H. DANIELs, a citizen of the United States, residing at Chicago, in the county of Cook and Stateof Illinois, have invented certain new and useful Improvements ina Stovelipe VarmingShelf and Oven,of which the following is a full and complete specication.

The object of my invention is to obtain a light and easily-constructed warming-shelf, or warming shelf and oven, suitable to attach to the pipe of an ordinary stove, either kitchen or parlor stove, for the purpose of keeping ar ticles placed thereon or therein Warm for any desired period of time.

I have illustrated my invention by the drawings accompanying this specification, in Which- Y Figure lis a front elevation of my invention, and Fig. 2 is a sectional view ofthe same.

Like letters refer to like parts throughout the several views.

X is a stove-pipe to which my invention is attached. I prefer to construct my warming shelf and oven with pipe X placed therein, and in applying the device to stoves alreadyin use it is merely necessary to take out from the pipe of said stove a piece of the pipe of equal length with pipe X.

' Y is an ordinary damper, as is also Z.

A A A are holes or perforations in pipe X.

B is an ordinary pipe or flue leading from hole A in pipe X to hollow C of the. shelf C.

B is a pipe or flue communicating by hole A with pipeX and the hollow space D around oven D.

b is a sleeve or collar around pipe X.

The Warming shelf and ovenmay be rotated around the pipe X, if desired, turning upon collar b and that portion of the Warming-shelf C inclosing said pipe. If it be not desired to rotate the device around the pipe X, collar b may be dispensed with, and pipes or yfines B B attached directly to pipe X. Vhen the.

deviceis made so that it may be turned around pipe X, it will be perceived that collar b shuts off all communication between pipe X and the pipes B B', and also the outer or surrounding air.

The manner of operation of my invention is as follows: DamperYis turned to the position illustrated in Fig. 2, and the direct ascent of the smoke from the stove through pipe X is prevented, and thereby deflected through and into pipes B B, that portion ofthe smoke entering pipe B ascending into hollow C in warming-shelf C, thereby warming said shelf, and, after passing through hollow C', re-entering pipe X through hole A". That portion of said smoke passing into and through pipe B enters space D', and, passing around'oven D, also enters pipe X through hole A. Free passage for the smokein pipe X being afforded in the manner last above described but little effect is produced by the deflection of such smoke upon the draft of the stove or pipe X,

and damperZ is therefore placed in pipe X,

by which the draft of the stove to which my device is attached may be controlled during the time such smoke is deflected through said device.

i Having thus described my invention and its manner of operation, what Iclaim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is

, 1. In a stove-pipe warming shelf and oven, the combination lof movable hollow shelf G and pipe B and pipe X, having holes A and and pipe B and pipe X, having holes A and A and damper Y therein, all substantially as described, and for the purpose set forth.

4. In a stove-pipe warming shelf and oven, the combination of vhollow oven D, pipe B, and pipe X, having holes A A" and dampers Y and Z therein, all substantially asdescribed, and for the purpose set forth.
